The Year of Living Biblically: One Man's Humble Quest to Follow the Bible as Literally as Possible

I have hosted a book club on Monday nights for two years now. I rarely post about book club so I thought I would share what we are currently reading. We just started the Year of Living Biblically by A. J. Jacobs. It’s by an ethnically Jewish but very secular guy who decided he will take the Bible as literal as possible and live accordingly – especially the laws of the Old Testament. The result is pretty crazy. He grows out a beard, wears tassels on his clothes and even attempts to “stone” an adulterer (he uses pebbles). It is at the same time hilarious and thought-provoking. Check it out at your library, or go ahead and buy it! It’s a very enjoyable read and worth calling your own!
